Music, Movies, and Books

Music: David Bowie, Peter Gabriel, Vangelis, Genesis, ELO, 70's prog rock, cheesy 80's music, Michael Jackson. I'll give everything a chance.

Movies: I love to watch movies, but don't do it often enough these days. Not a movie snob by any stretch of the imagination, but must draw the line at vapid rom-coms. Love movies from the 80s.
Midnight Cowboy, The Graduate, Glengarry Glen Ross, Rocky IV, The Wicker Man just a few.

Books: used to read a lot growing up, but with my work I'm afraid this past-time has been put on the backburner. The internet has supplanted it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to countries where I didn't already know anybody. I have in the past moved to Malta and Sweden with no contacts and just my wits. It really improves self-confidence! Currently I am resident in Sweden and in my time here have set up a very small business, learned Swedish and taught English classes through Swedish.

I made a small children's book!
